Talk:Alkaline earth

is this correct? any chemists out there? quite a few pages link this instead of alkaline earth metals when talking about period 2 elements. i began redirecting links @ period 1 element to alkaline earth metals instead, but now i'm not sure that these are synonyms anyway? My oxford dictionary seems to agree? --postglock 03:25, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Seems like we're going in circles. This was redirected once before to Alkaline earth metals and I think it makes sense. There is info on that page regarding oxides as well as metals.Glendoremus 23:16, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
